It is recognized that new types of land use will develop and
forms of land use not anticipated may seek to locate in the City of
Willow Park. In order to provide for such changes and contingencies,
a determination as to the appropriate classification of any new or
unlisted form of land use shall be made as follows:
(1)
The city administrator shall refer the question concerning any new
or unlisted use to the planning and zoning commission requesting an
interpretation as to the zoning classification into which such use
should be placed. The referral of the use interpretation question
shall be accompanied by a statement of the facts listing the nature
of the use and whether it involves dwelling activity, sales, processing,
type of product, storage, and amount or nature thereof, enclosed or
open storage, anticipated employment, and the amount of noise, odor,
fumes, dust, toxic material and vibration likely to be generated.
(2)
The planning and zoning commission shall consider the nature and
described performance of the proposed use and its compatibility with
the uses permitted in the various districts and determine the zoning
district(s) within which such use should be permitted.
(3)
The planning and zoning commission shall transmit its findings and
recommendations to the city council as to the classification proposed
for any new or unlisted use. The city council shall by resolution
approve the recommendations of the planning and zoning commission
or make such determination concerning the classification of such use
as is determined appropriate.
(Ordinance 335-93 adopted 2/16/93; 1993 Code, ch. 12, ex. A, sec.
6.00; Ordinance 414-97 adopted 12/16/97)
Hereafter, when the boundaries of the City of Willow Park have
been extended so as to include any given area, such area shall automatically
be placed in an “R-1” zoning district. The planning and
zoning commission may recommend to the city council that all or part
of such area being placed [be placed] in a different zoning district
after the required public hearings. Until this chapter has been properly
amended by the city council, such areas shall be subject to the regulation
pertaining to the “R-1” district.
